Taking Cairns of Business

Four players battled their way into a four-bet pot preflop, and they all found themselves looking down at a {6-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{10-Clubs} flop. The action went as follows:

James Metcalf (big blind) - bet
Kenny Hsiung (under the gun) - raise
Malissia Zapata - fold
Daivd Cairns - reraise
Metcalf - call
Hsiung - cap
Cairns - call
Metcalf - call

That's an awful lot of action, isn't it?

So they saw a {7-Hearts} turn and Metcalf checked. Hsiung bet again and both players called. The action was the same on the {3-Clubs} river.

So, showdown time.

Metcalf: {q-}{q-} for an overpair
Hsiung: {9-Spades}{9-Hearts} for a set of nines
Cairns: {10-Hearts}{10-Spades} for a set of tens

With that enormous pot, Cairns broke the magic 100,000 mark - he's at 104,800.
